How can I fix the below issue?

User's image

The MDI instance on my existing tenant was not completed before by my predecessor, hence I deleted the three builtin groups, however, I am still stuck at the above issue, despite the gMSA has been created and the agent installed on my OnPremise AD DS.

    @EnterpriseArchitect Apologies for the delayed response, just wanted to check does the issue still persists?

    Were you able to delete the MDI groups and re-create the instance?

    Check the required permissions/pre-reqs required to create MDI instance
